February Memorables

We got our snow. It was the perfect snow too, fell softly all morning and melted by sun down. The obligatory "first snow" photo shoot results are here.









Ryder is all over the place and into everything. She pulls up on anything and has let go and stood alone a few times. She is signing more and all done, although they look exactly the same. She loves for her Daddy to chew ice and feed it to her. Gross but true. Her biggest accomplishment of the month, she got her first tooth this month. See it?


Rowan is still adjusting to being a big brother and having to share us and his toys with Ryder. He is learning to spell his name and is curious about what letter your name starts with. I've enjoyed seeing things click with him. This was a photo from our snow day but I cropped all of the snow out to enjoy those eyes. I think he is saying "cheese."


He had his first Valentine party at school. They sat in a circle and each stood up and put their cards/candy in each others envelopes. Rowan went first and he wasn't sure why he was doing this but he went with it.

This is Rowan's buddy, Ben. They hang out by the computer a lot and have deep conversations about Mario Kart. They even coordinated a t-shirt day where they both showed up in a Mario Kart shirt.
Grandma came to stay with us for a few weeks this month and it's such treat for all of us. We get to do things like happy hours and concerts, my mom gets to love on my babies and my babies get spoiled rotten. This was what we walked into several nights during her visit.


We are back to the grind now, trading off kids while the other works out or does something fun. On the to do list, Find. A. Sitter.
